So my friend was looking for 1-wide logic gate designs. I built an AND gate as an example, then went to fix something to eat. When I came back, he had built what he came up with when trying to design a vertical AND gate. Playing with his mechanism, (get your mind out of the gutter...) I noticed that z would only return true when x was true, and y was false. That would make this a non-implication gate, or NIMPLIES.
His NIMPLIES gate.
Oh, did I mention he had left in the time I was gone? So anyway, I left him a couple signs, explaining what he had actually built. That wasn't enough, imo, so I attached a line of repeaters to a clock, acting as a marquee pointing at the signs. Then I placed 2 glowstone blocks on pistons, attached to the clock, further drawing attention to the message. After that, I built an example, so it would be easier to see exactly what was going on in this gate.
Eventually, it all led to what you see below.
But first! Let's get a look at my friend's unsuspecting face.
Now, on to the stuff and things!!!
Did I mention I built a room around all of this? 'Cause yeah... I did that.
Oh, I also built walls that retract 2 meters, opening a small hallway between the rooms.
^^^ Closed.
^^^ Open.
^^^ And the circuitry behind it. Not proud of this, it's very sloppy and could be faster. It's not compact either, but I was in somewhat of a hurry.
And lastly, we have the example design of a NIMPLIES gate, all spread out to make things simple. Inputs and outputs at the top of the shot. From left to right, it's z, y, x.
This just proves that griefing doesn't have to be a bad thing. It can be friendly and educational. I'm not saying go to your friend's world and write a full history lesson across the ground with blocks. But you can show them something they might not have known before, while getting that gratifying "WTF!?" reaction at the same time.
I welcome you to comment on my new griefing technique. You may also share your own tales of trolling, as long as it is reasonably well-mannered, and all in good fun.
That 1x2 door you made, it's called a jeb door
Also, I didn't read NIMPLIES at first, ...

Religion, has actually convinced people, that there's an invisible man, living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of the day, and the invisible man has a special list. Of 10 things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do ANY of these ten things he has a special place, full of fire, and smoke, and burning, and torture, and will send you there to suffer and choke and scream for all of eternity... But he still loves you.
A few weeks back, I was helping my friend figure out a Redstone design he was trying to implement into his adventure map, and he went away for about an hour unannounced, so while waiting, I noticed I could "push" him since he left while flying in creative, so I got an idea. I started by building a staircase up at least 20-30 blocks, creating a 6x6x4 room at the top of the stairs, and spent the next 10 minutes "pushing" him up the stairs, into the room at the top, then erasing the stairs, and completely encasing the room so it had no visible exits. I then took some eggs, and spawned as many chickens in there as I could (it was only like 5-8, he had a chicken farm in another portion of the map) then I put in a lever, and rigged it to a simple Redstone circuit that set off enough tnt to completely destroy the room to a single block (though I messed up and only 1 tnt ever went off... oopse!) and had a sign above the lever saying "pull for release". then the waiting game started, and it was right before I was about to give up and leave that he came back, extremely confused to how he got there. He pulled the lever, some of the tnt went off, and he was cleaning up the rest of the room when my internet decided to act up and keep disconnecting me. Needless to say, while it was destructive, it was only designed to be so, and nothing else on his map was touched! He still has no idea how I managed to get him up in the air either! If only I had thought to get screenshots... ah well... it was still fun!
That 1x2 door you made, it's called a jeb door
Also, I didn't read NIMPLIES at first, ...
It's two double piston extenders that pull the walls back. A traditional Jeb's door design doesn't even use double extenders. A lot of Miecrafters mistake Jeb's door for being any door that is flush with the wall. By this definition, wooden and steel doors could also be Jeb's door.

Now this... this is a good one. In creative, away from existing builds, TNT is pretty much harmless. Makes me think of something I should have added to my little escapade. I didn't think of screenshots until after I had already done everything. But, being the forum ***** that I am, I thought: "This would make for an interesting topic!"

Please, feel free to copy it, tis part of the reason why i posted the story. now i don't know if the "push" trick also works if the person is not flying, but if it does, you may want to make the stairs a little wider than your average 1 block stairs, just to prevent them from falling down the steps and you having to start all over again.
and my next harmless "troll" experience will be building a large, pointless maze around a person away in survival when i'm hosting, and take away their build privs, thus forcing them to complete the maze or else be stuck in there forever!!!

A large maze is harsh IMO.
Can't they just quit that world? They can play in another and rebuild. Or they could get help from someone else. Maybe even unfriend.

A short maze that takes a few min is fine.
It wouldn't be a complex maze, just a bunch of consecutive spirals, (maybe only 4) and at the center of one would be the exit, i'd build the maze around them, w/ them at the center, and they have a 1/4 chance to get out on the first try. if i had to do a complex maze, they better have fallen asleep at the xbox because those can take me up to 8 hours to complete in creative! (not to mention many thousands of blocks)

Reminds me of an idea I had. I would like to build a combo lock based puzzle around someone. I could use pressure plates for this, since you don't need build permissions to operate them. But they would have to be AFK for quiiiiiiite awhile. I may try this one day, when I know someone's going to be idle for a couple hours.
I just had an awesome idea, very Roadrunner VS Wiley Coyote... but we'd need anvils first, and it would have to be timed perfect. here's the scenario:
Scene: Desert Biome, You are chasing your friend through the desert with a diamond sword, and he leads you to this massive cliff area, he runs over a hidden pressure plate, setting off a circit so he's out of the drop zone, but it activates a row of 3-5 sticky pistons holding blocks under the anvil, allowing the anvils to fall, squashing you, while your buddy is then able to loot your dead body... Only thing that would make it better, have 4J add in a death screen saying "You got Roadrunnered!"... now that would be a little unfriendly, but very funny troll episode! (and it does work, just tested on my PC version of MC, but with tripwire instead of a pressure plate)
Also, a while back my friend was afk on his survival world. So I went to his house, took all of his stuff, made some pistons and redstone, and when he got back in, he stepped on a pressure plate and his whole floor was moving up and down like crazy... Plus I had doors going crazy. And 15 seconds later. I pressed a button (I was hiding under the floor with the circuit) and his whole house blew up(:
Wonderful redstone...

When one of my friends entered his house that I rigged with redstone, he died from the tnt cannons I had at a distance, of course this was before the 20 active tnt rule.
Teaches you to not put a pressure plate on your door.

Now that... would be epic. I always loved Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote as a child. Hell, I still love that show! xD Not the new 3D version though, it's not even funny, but the classics are still amazing. Now, if only we could construct defective rockets and 50 ft. long by 15 in. wide rubber bands.

I have a couple stories on my old world we had a spawn trap surrounded by lava and then we placed 40 dispensers behind the lava filled with arrows, we hooked them up to a button connected to a T-Flip flop which also connected to a rapid clock. We would then invite random people in and give them 2 minutes to find a way out (there was no way out) at the end of the two minutes the button was pressed and a firestorm of flaming arrows and lag destroyed everyone on the platform.
Then on another map my friends and I were playing we made a desert village we built a couple houses and all of us replaced the sand floors in our houses except one friend. Everytime I walked in there it bothered me (OCD much?) so I asked him to change it, he laughed and said no because he knew it bothered me. So when he was in our mine I dug up his floor then I placed a sign on a block and connected a sticky piston on that block, I then placed sign after sign on the one I had placed on the block. When I finished that I filled underneath the signs with lava. I then placed the sand back on the signs and wired the sticky piston up to the pressure plate for his door. I added a bunch of repeaters to give a little delay so he could read the signs I left him they read "I warned you about the floor, since you won't do it I will...btw I'm doing it right now > enjoy your lava bath" lol by the time he read the signs it was too late the piston shifted the block breaking the sign and subsequently all the other signs causing the sand to fall info the lava along with my friend lol
A while back I made a huge time bomb under a big house that this guy on my friends list built. Normally I'm not one for griefing but this guy was kind of a douche, he would constantly pester me to join his worlds because he didn't know how to do the old dupe glitch by himself and needed someone to break the oven/dispenser for him, I got tired of it and concocted a device.
Now this guy had his autosave always set to 15 minutes and I really wanted to achieve two things with this bomb-1. Make the damage permanent and 2. Have the bomb explode without me in the game.
So basically there was roughly a 40x40x3 slab of TNT that I layer under his house over the course of a few days when he was either afk or filling his chests with duped stuff, the slab was connected by a redstone wire to a device that consisted of an item despawn timer hooked up to a cobblestone generator. Every 5 minutes when an item despawned it would push a cobblestone block along a line, after the 9th push(45 minutes) this line would get pushed through an inverted redstone current line, breaking the circuit and turning the line that leads back to the TNT on.
So I triggered the device and left the game (I told the guy I had to go have dinner so he knew for sure that nobody was in his game), but stayed in the party just chatting to him about random stuff. Well, after 45 minutes the device triggered and blew his house to kingdom come killing him in the process as he was in the basement at the time filling his chests with duped stuff, he freaks out and backs out of the game thinking something glitched out, he reloads his last auto save.........everything is back to normal for about 5 or 10 minutes then it explodes again!! He then starts ranting that herobrine is real because there is no one in his game but he is getting griefed
Whoops accidentally hit the post button before I was done.
So yeah he's ranting and reloading his world over and over, I had had to mute my mic because I was ing myself, any ways I join his game about a week later to see what's up and he is busy recording his lawn up house with a capture card so he can upload it to YouTube and finally prove to the world that herobrine exists. LMFAO!!!
